Guys I've seen that if I use any other keyboard except the stock one, it lags little. I mean I can't type fast sometimes, not every time!! Any solution for this?

Use a lite keyboard less ram and CPU hungry
SwiftKey doesn't lag

With me keyboards (almost all of them) always lagged at the start, I mean starting the keyboard takes time, not typing with it.

Hey XDA community!
So I am new to the site as well as android (transferred from BB) and I recently rooted my G2X with the help of all the articles, instructions and postings on the site. So for that thank you all.
My first question for the community is: Which app makes for a better keyboard than Swype?
Now that am rooted and running a cleaner OS than stock I am considering doing away with swype in place of something better, faster and preferably easier. But since am new to the Android platform I don't quite know where to start and which keyboards apps are truly better.
No keyboard is faster than swype. Swiftkey is pretty interesting, 8pen is a fun novelty, and there are a few out there that add keys most don't have, but swype it's the fastest by far.
Download the beta though, it's so much better than stock.

I love Swiftkey. Not as fast as Swype but more accurate for the way I type. Personal preference

Its personal preference actually. I tried swype but didn't like the dragging finger all the time. Tapping is more what I like. But if you can get use to swype. Its the fastest. Otherwise go with smartkeyboard

Okay, all good suggestions. Ive download both smart and swype beta and will give them each a trial run and see.
Thanks for the help!
I told ya!

If you want a taping keyboard, Swiftkey X is the way to go. It's got AI scripting that predicts what word you're about to type before you even start typing it. It learns as you go too, so it gets better over time.
I love it. I use Keyboard Manager, which lets me set different keyboards based on rotation, and have swype on portrait and Swiftkey on landscape.

Stock ics keyboard, great autocorrect, lightweight memory footprint (swiftkey uses like three times the ram ics does) and hasn't let me down yet.

Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard. Been through just about every keyboard out there and this one has been the best for me so far.

Keyboard for Android 2.3
Giving SwiftKey 3 a try right now though since it has some nice themes.
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda app-developers app
I use SwiftKey 3 right now. It's pretty fast, but i'm also a fan of the stock keyboard for 2.3.3 to be honest. I love the Swype feature.

I don't see how the stock keyboard is even remotely comparable to Swiftkey. They're equally responsive, but Swiftkey gets way better at predicting what you're going to type next than the stock keyboard. I've tried getting used to the stock keyboard after using Swiftkey, since the stock keyboard uses much less memory, but it's not nearly as useful.

When I comes to prediticions, I have to agree, but like I said the only feature that I like of the stock keyboard is the Swype. I've tried go keyboard and slideit but they're swyping was a quite the pain. But as of this moment, I am typing with SwiftKey 3.

I like stock (GB and ICS), hate Swype, but overall, Swifkey is the best... if you get the paid version.
A while ago I got the paid SwiftKey keyboard from amazon when it was free. SwiftKey is the way to go

Hey guys, just wanted to ask if anyone else has this problem, my phone crashes when I type the words "you" and "side" without using Swype.. It will freeze and I have to hold down the power button to get it to exit the app (usually messaging or Web). Anyone else have this problem and know a fix?

I have never had any problems with any keyboard. I use the ics keyboard, and swype for when I need to type in Spanish or English if I'm driving not that I ever text n drive lol

No the Swype keyboard. I was using the Samsung Keyboard yesterday because I got tired of Swype crashing but I rest my Swype dictionary this morning and it looks like it's not crashing anymore so I guess that fixed it.

Install better battery stats, normally I really don't like info that inbuilt app gives. And anyway what's your battery life?
Sent from my HTC Explorer A310e using xda app-developers app
Same problem is with me.
Calibration didn't work for me,but one of my friend is getting battery backup for almost 2 days.
Somehow i make my phone run 12 hours, by doing :
1. Reduce brightness to the minimum level for you to see clearly.
2. Use Advanced Task Killer app to kill apps residing in ram & using cpu & draining battery uselessly.
3. Keeping wireless networks disabled until needed.
4. Keeping screen off, untill you need it.
Basic yet remarkable steps.
